Every spring my beautiful garlic plants fall over, like

How deep do you plant the cloves in the fall?


about 3" deep

What garlic varieties?


purple glazer, I think

Soil type?


Started out barren alkaline. Now is is a mixture of
organic fertilizer, vegi scraps, and peat moss


And these guy stand tall and proud all winder long
with rain, snow, and very high winds

Haven't had much wind this spring
